Recently bought this Presario 2550 laptop
It has a Toshiba DVD /CDRW internal drive
Running XP home edition SP1A.

I am able to read CDs and view DVDs
I am unable to burn any CDs
Using Nero Burning ROM V5 to try to burn CDs
It does not recoginze the blank media.
I used the same media succsesfully on a desktop CDRW.

TIA
Dave

are you sure that your CD drive is being loaded at all. See if you can see
a drive letter for it, if not then it is probably that your lower filters
have been turned on by a recent CD burning install and will have to be
deleted.

the drive must be supported by the burning software
you may need a new version of Nero.
the last version of Nero 5.5 was 5.5.10.56
you can get it at www.dvdrwhelp.com

exclamation
on the system tray ..
